Elements Mafia 70 - by Linkcat

GA should be protecting the Nymph at all times too.

[MasterWalks]

Discussion on rules and rulebreaking is outside the context of the game and should not be used to read players.

Makes sense. In that case:

JCJ- Called me out for a penalty, if he gets me modkilled, thats one less person he has to kill on night phase Can guarantee who the mafia will target.

Your strat assumes mafia dont have secondary roles. It confirms nothing except secondary roles. It also wastes a 1/9 chance angel happens to save a civ tonight, because i can guarentee mafia wont target you.

[JonathanCrazyJ]

Yes, because mafia never target the scummiest looking civ.

[JonathanCrazyJ]

Why would they, when they are more likely to be mislynched

[Linkcat]

Guardian Angel and Iridium Warden have swapped places in the Role Priority list.

d2d- Has quite the opinion on which questions should and should not be asked. Is he hiding something?

W...well yeah I am... You see, I don't know any of the Spice Girls... So if someone asked that, I wouldn't be able to answer it

[dawn to dusk]

Ok but I'll provide context to my post for those who aren't as familiar with it

Most people tend to be quite split on whether the bread questionnaire is worthwhile or not, and I am in the party of people who think it is useless. Feel free to make one, but our efforts can be spent elsewhere instead of giving people safe posts to say stuff like "I'm active, don't you see where I said I prefer noodles over waffles"

[17:19:23] ‹MasterWalks› ‹@dawn_to_dusk› If you were to chose any ability you wanted besides GN, which would you chose?
[17:22:12] ‹dawn_to_dusk› If I were to choose what ability I would have at the start of the game, I would choose Phoenix

hmmmmmm.....

Obviously there are complications to this plan so we shouldn't strive for it unless it drops into our palms, but we get some fun things to occur if Phoenix dies early.

Golden Nymph can tell them who to vote for, and people can, for the most part, vote for that person if they consistently put the vote on the same person.

It gets even better if Vulture targets Phoenix, then also dies, then you get two "confirmed towns"

The cost of this is 4 dead towns over 2 days 2 nights which is why we shouldn't strive to get this, also the lack of Vulture -> Golden Nymph if Nymph dies. It's an extremely nice novelty to get though

I believe this train of thinking is reflected by this post

[RootRanger]

I've thought about it more and a civ Phoenix is indeed quite strong. It may make sense as a Day 1 lynch. Phoenix could then receive all civ information and piece together who to vote for, with the rest of the civs bandwagoning on the Phoenix's vote. The ideal scenario is that the cop sends info that a player is mafia to the Phoenix, but even knowing confirmed civs is useful such that the Phoenix has a higher % chance of finding a mafia on a lynch. It's just contingent on the Phoenix knowing what he's doing and the civs knowing to trust him.

Root -

Phoenix - Passive
Ash - If you die and you are an Elemental, you may still vote, but you may not talk in the thread, send PMs, or or communicate in any way with another player. No other player may communicate with you in any way other than a personal message on the forum that contains only text. You may not attempt to use your vote to communicate with other players. If you die and you are a False God, you may still post and communicate with other players. Ash is not counted for parity.

Not a good idea, especially when a dead phoenix won't count towards our end-game total.

RL has been in my way of late(the last 50ish hours), but I have skimmed through roughly about what has been said so far.


I think that while we can slowly gather info now, all we are really doing is pointing fingers aimlessly right now. Once we have our first death and first nights abilities information then we can start making deductions and slowly weasel the mafia out of hiding.
